Our college provides a safe and supportive environment and specialist facilities such a unique quiet space (The Haven) staffed by specialists, ensuring a secure environment throughout the college day. In addition to this there is a quiet area within the Bluebird classroom for students to use if and when they need time out from their session.
In addition to mandatory subjects aimed at fostering essential life, academic and vocational skills, you will have the opportunity to experience other areas in the college via taster sessions, giving you a wide range of options for the future.
